6/30/10 Wed. Prov Pacific

Staff meeting at 9am this morning...got here about 7:40

Staff meeting went well...discussed opening date for the new tower and lots of discussion on opening activities. What should we have at the open house? Entertainment, tours, etc. Also, we are deciding on questions to ask the focus group we are used for research on the new tower.

I am next for reflections! Scaryyy...hopefully I will find something meaningful and creative. I prefer to do it on my own and not have to ask dad for help (trying to make a name for myself other than Tom Brennan's daughter).

Afterwards, I called and interviewed Gayle. Gayle is the manager of the Intervention Center for Assault and Abuse for the Dawson Place. I got some info on her position, as well as her insight to the new move taking place on July 6th.

Then I received a phone call from David Renne, fitness and ergonomics specialist here at Providence. I am writing a wellness story on Jamie Smith (RN) and her experience with David here at Prov. He told me about his job, his goals and how he helped Jamie Smith to achieve her goals.

I will be calling Jamie after 1:30 pm. I wanted to meet with her in person but she is very busy with a 2 and a half year old so I will be conducting the interview over the phone.

Finally got ahold of Jamie. Her story was so touching and inspirational. She has definitely had her share of hardships but it was a beautiful story and I am lucky to have interviewed her.

I will be working on putting that story together tomorrow and this weekend. I was also assigned a few new projects from Cheri today and will update tomorrow

Hours: 7:40am-4:30pm
